license to drive, with heather graham and the 2 corey guys right. good movie. the part where he hits the computer and makes them all shutdown during his exam, that was great. and his actual driving test is classic, comparing his and his sister's. good choice

Big Trouble in Little China.

If you havent ever seen One Crazy Summer you should, it's a sequel of sorts to Better of Dead. Not really in story or characters, but the humor is fairly close.

It's 106 miles to Chicago. We got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes; it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

Blues Brothers, best ever!

Edit: oh, and A Christmas Story, a close second.
